Hjorth, assuming ${\sf{AD+ZF+DC}}$, showed that there is no sequence of length $\omega_2$ consisting of distinct $\Sigma^1_2$-sets. We show that the same theory implies that for $n\geq 0$, there is no sequence of length $\delta^1_{2n+2}$…
We show that for any uncountable cardinal $\lambda$, the category of sets of cardinality at least $\lambda$ and monomorphisms between them cannot appear as the category of point of a topos, in particular is not the category of models of a…
We show that generalized eventually narrow sequences on a strongly inaccessible cardinal $\kappa$ are preserved under the Cummings-Shaleh non-linear iterations of the higher Hechler forcing on $\kappa$. Moreover assuming GCH,…
Kunen's proof of the non-existence of Reinhardt cardinals opened up the research on very large cardinals, i.e., hypotheses at the limit of inconsistency. One of these large cardinals, I0, proved to have descriptive-set-theoretical…
We study connections between definability in generalized descriptive set theory and large cardinals, under ZFC. We show that if $\kappa$ is a limit of measurables then there is no wellorder of a subset of $P(\kappa)$ of length…
A linear order $L$ is strongly surjective if $L$ can be mapped onto any of its suborders in an order preserving way. We prove various results on the existence and non-existence of uncountable strongly surjective linear orders answering…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $X$ be a smooth integral variety over $K$, and assume that there exists a finite set of finite places $S$ of $K$ such that the $S$-integral points on $X$ are dense. Then the combined conjectures of Campana and…
We prove several results giving lower bounds for the large cardinal strength of a failure of the singular cardinal hypothesis. The main result is the following theorem: Theorem: Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular strong limit cardinal and…
The Suslin hypothesis states that there are no nonseparable complete dense linear orderings without endpoints which have the countable chain condition. $\mathsf{ZF + AD^+ + V = L(\mathscr{P}(\mathbb{R}))}$ proves the Suslin hypothesis. In…
Assume $AD+V=L(\mathbb{R})$. Let $\kappa=\utilde{\delta}^2_1$, the supremum of all $\utilde{\Delta}^2_1$ prewellorderings. We prove that extenders on the sequence of $\H$ that have critical point $\kappa$ are generated by countably complete…
By the {\em Suslinian number} $\Sln(X)$ of a continuum $X$ we understand the smallest cardinal number $\kappa$ such that $X$ contains no disjoint family $\C$ of non-degenerate subcontinua of size $|\C|\ge\kappa$. For a compact space $X$,…
Assuming an instance of the Brodsky-Rinot proxy principle holding at a regular uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we construct $2^\kappa$-many pairwise non-embeddable minimal non-$\sigma$-scattered linear orders of size $\kappa$. In particular,…
Let kappa be an uncountable regular cardinal. Call an equivalence relation on functions from kappa into 2 Sigma_1^1-definable over H(kappa) if there is a first order sentence F and a parameter R subseteq H(kappa) such that functions…
We show that if the universe is self-iterable and $\kappa$ is an inaccessible limit of Woodin cardinal then $AD_R + "\Theta$ is regular" holds in the derived model at $\kappa$. The proof is fine-structure free, and only assumes basic…
We show that a class of Dirichlet series ${\mathfrak{A}}^{\#}$ that is much larger than the extended Selberg class ${\mathscr{S}}^{\#}$, and also contains the standard as well as the tensor product, exterior square and symmetric square…
We prove that every closed set which is not sigma-finite with respect to the Hausdorff measure H^{N-1} carries singularities of continuous vector fields in the Euclidean space R^N for the divergence operator. We also show that finite…
Given an uncountable cardinal $\kappa$, we consider the question of whether subsets of the power set of $\kappa$ that are usually constructed with the help of the Axiom of Choice are definable by $\Sigma_1$-formulas that only use the…
We introduce a class of notions of forcing which we call $\Sigma$-Prikry, and show that many of the known Prikry-type notions of forcing that centers around singular cardinals of countable cofinality are $\Sigma$-Prikry. We show that given…
Let $F(s)=\sum_n a_n/\lambda_n^s$ be a general Dirichlet series which is absolutely convergent on $\Re(s)>1$. Assume that $F(s)$ has an analytic continuation and satisfies a growth condition, which gives rise to certain invariants namely…
Rice's Theorem states that every nontrivial language property of the recursively enumerable sets is undecidable. Borchert and Stephan initiated the search for complexity-theoretic analogs of Rice's Theorem. In particular, they proved that…
